Mobile App Development Review from Rob Abney
The team at Kinemeric was a pleasure to work with. They took the time to understand our project requirements and designed a plan that accounting for the amount of work the tight turn around and our budget constraints. They pretty much embedded themselves into our engineering team to align all our resources and made sure the project progressed efficiently. They made sure to communicate all roadblocks or deviations from the plan so that our team understood what was happening.

Web Development Review from Molly Rusk
Kinemeric assisted in transitioning our web hosting and management to a new platform and has since been involved in various projects like feature improvements and website revamp. Our site, built on WordPress, was moved to WP Engine's cloud-based hosting service under their guidance. They also integrated GitHub. Other tasks included web design, competitor research, wireframe development, software development, and more.

Web Development Review from Kevin Williams
Kinemeric developed the frontend of our apps and web experience, while my team worked on the backend and APIs. The technologies used included Objective-C for iOS, Java for Android, and Angular for web, with backend integrations in Scala, Ruby, Python, MySQL, and Elasticsearch. Users can select their favorite sports, teams, and athletes, and the app curates news and videos accordingly, offering a personalized experience.

.Mark over promises and under delivers. I have worked on 3 projects with him. The first was fine the other two were a disaster.
Delivery of product was shoddy, overpriced, Mark loses control and blames everyone else, doesn't take a responsibility. In the end your throwing money at the prob .
Definitely do not use this Firm.

Bob LiVolsi's Review Sourced from Google
At Vaccine Systems, we were under time pressure to get our website up as entered an incubator and a grant process for our Covid-19 related medical technology. In less than 3 weeks, Dos Mundos Creative stepped up and accomplished that. In our first meetings, they listened to and understood our needs. Not only did they provide a great-looking website, but they also sharpened our messaging and provided a logo for which we have received many compliments. All this accomplished in a matter of weeks! in the 8 months since then, we have had two minor issues of our own making pop up with the website. In both cases, Dos Mundos responded quickly and fixed the issue. We recommend Dos Mundos to anyone looking for a responsive and capable team to provide an up-to-date website with excellent graphics that appeals to the eye and tells your story well.

Cassie Shankman's Review Sourced from Google
I hired DMC right before Covid, and everything we had talked about in regards to design and branding I was ready to throw out the window as my whole world had shifted. I am a musician and I do live events and with Covid, I had NO idea what to do. Kana and her team met with me regularly throughout 2020 helping not just talk about my website (which I hired them to do), but go above and beyond and help me with everything – pivoting, new ideas, how to build on what I have, mental health... I MEAN EVERYTHING).
They truly gave me so much life through a very dismal time. I felt inspired and excited for what could come next, even if it might have to wait for 2021. They worked with my budget and created something magical – even better than what I could imagine. I have had some hiccups on my side, and they've been there all along responding very quickly! I truly don't know what I would have done without them. They take my crazy ideas and flow and turn it into something that is very easy to understand.
Dos Mundos Creative is more than just a branding, website design/building agency... they are the real deal and the full package and make you feel just as important as a client with a huge budget. I am so grateful I found them and grateful to continue to work with them. They are my GO TO!!! And it's female-founded, so that's also a plus in my book!

Dos Mundos did an incredible job of taking our brand and media assets and transform them into something that we were finally proud of and that got our message across. They are fast, effective, and intuitive as a team. They were also able to take our guidance and think outside of the box coming up with ways of presenting our ideas that were more succinct and beautiful. Thanks Kana, Parker, and Dos Mundos!

Dion K's Review Sourced from Google
I’ve known this agency many years ago and it is really hard nowadays to find creatives who work wholeheartedly for your own brand’s interest. They are not the cheapest, but they truly give value, not only delivering the work that truly resonates, but also giving you the best experience for your project right from the start. They even went the extra mile beyond the scope that was agreed to help us out source for the best deals on your next steps. Truly recommended for any discerning brands who are in the market to create something meaningful.

I've worked with agencies all around the world from London to US to Singapore, and I've honestly never encountered a better, more passionate, and more dedicated bunch.
The team at Somewhere Else are deeply creative, passionate about the work they do and their work ethic is hugely commendable.
We worked with them closely for almost a year on our rebranding work, and it was one of the best decisions we've made as a business. Their ideas were original, their designs were fresh and their attention to detail and Client-centricity were second to none. Highly recommended!

They offer a mix of branding, digital product design, and creative services to help businesses build recognizable brands and user-friendly digital experiences, often combining graphic design, digital marketing support, and content creation.
Core services include:
Branding and brand identity: Creating logos, visual identity systems, brand guidelines, typography, and messaging frameworks. These services are widely used because a consistent brand presentation can increase revenue by up to 23%, according to marketing research cited in design industry reports.
Web design and web development: Building responsive website design, landing pages, eCommerce design, and front-end implementation, often supporting broader digital marketing and content marketing strategies.
UX (user experience) and UI (user interface) design: Usually accounts for 60-70% of agency offerings, according to many design agencies' insights. UX/UI design focuses on usability, research, and interface design for digital products such as websites, SaaS platforms, and mobile apps. Agencies handle user research, wireframes, prototypes, usability testing, and final UI designs, often applying innovative design approaches to improve usability and engagement.
Product and app design: Creating digital products such as mobile apps, SaaS platforms, and dashboards that combine UX research, interaction design, and prototyping before development.
Graphic design and marketing design: Producing marketing and communication assets, such as social media visuals, advertising creatives, packaging design, presentations, and editorial design, to support brand campaigns.
Design strategy and research: Providing strategic services such as design thinking workshops, product discovery, customer journey mapping, and innovation consulting to align design decisions with business goals. Some agencies apply concentric design principles, focusing on aligning user needs, brand identity, and product functionality around a unified experience.
How much do design services cost?
Design agency pricing varies by scope, seniority, and market, but most agencies sell work in three common ways: fixed project fees, hourly/day rates, or monthly retainers.
Most design companies charge $75-$250 per hour, while full projects typically range from $5,000 for small branding work to $100,000+ for complex digital product or website design projects.
In the United States and other high-cost markets, design agencies typically charge:
$100-$250/hr. for UX/UI and product design specialists.
$75-$200/hr. for general graphic design or digital design agency services.
Regional averages for UX/UI design in North America often range from $50 to $200/hr, depending on expertise and specialization.
Branding and brand identity
Basic brand identity packages: $5,000-$25,000 for logo design, typography systems, color palettes, and brand guidelines.
More comprehensive brand design projects can range from $ 5,000 to $30,000+, depending on the strategy work and deliverables.
Websitedesign
Smaller website design projects: $3,000-$20,000+, depending on the number of pages and customization.
Full website redesign projects typically cost $10,000-$200,000+, especially for large or enterprise websites.
UX/UI design projects generally start around $10,000 and can exceed $100,000 for complex products or SaaS platforms.
How long does a typical design project take?
The timeline of a design project depends on the type of service, project complexity, and the speed of feedback. Still, most professional design firm projects take between 6 weeks and 6 months from kickoff to final delivery.
Branding projects: 4-12 weeks, including research, strategy, and visual identity; larger rebranding solutions can extend to 3-6 months or more, depending on stakeholder involvement and deliverables.
Website design: 8-20 weeks to design and launch a website
UX/UI and product design: 2-6 months
Complex digital products, enterprise websites, or large-scale rebrands can extend timelines to 6 months or longer.

How can I evaluate the quality of a design agency's work?
The best design companies demonstrate measurable business impact, strong design processes, and proven results across multiple projects.
Review the agency's portfolio and case studies to look for design projects that delivered measurable outcomes such as 25% higher conversion rates or 35% growth in daily active users after UX improvements.
Evaluate usability and user experience metrics, such as task completion rates that improve from 50% to 90%, time needed to complete key actions, customer satisfaction scores, and reduction in support tickets or errors.
Assess the agency's design process and research approach, check whether it includes stages like discovery and research, user interviews and insights, wireframes and prototypes, usability testing, and iteration and optimization.
Evaluate companies based on how well their work contributes to revenue growth, customer retention, or operational efficiency.
